The Green Brassy is a simple yet highly effective nymph pattern that imitates small midge and caddis larvae—two of the most consistent food sources in trout streams. Built with fine wire wrapped over a slim thread body, this fly sinks quickly, stays durable, and provides a natural sheen that attracts feeding fish. The metallic green color mimics the iridescence of emerging midges or caddis, making it a reliable choice in both clear and slightly stained water.
Perfect for year-round use, the Brassy is especially productive in tailwaters, spring creeks, and freestone rivers where trout key in on smaller insects near the bottom. Its slender, flashy profile gets attention without appearing unnatural—ideal for pressured fish in technical conditions.
Best for:
- Trout feeding on midge or caddis larvae
- Clear or lightly stained rivers and tailwaters
- Nymphing rigs and dropper setups year-round
📌 Pro Tip: Fish a Brassy as a dropper beneath a dry fly or pair it with a heavier anchor nymph. Its flash and slim profile make it a perfect trailing fly for picky trout.
